Forscan does work for new keys and a new cluster. You must be a computer expert to use the free version. The $10 version is very easy to use. Forscan has a mandatory wait time of 25 minutes to make new keys or program the keys to the new cluster. You can make new keys without Forscan software but you must be exact with the Ford instructions and have a good correct key. The other questions I can't answer.

What year pcm?
VIN write worked on an older version of Forscan on a copperhead pcm. But Forscan removed that in later versions.
I never tried to see if that feature is available for the 05-10 MY.
My gut tells me it wont work, because Forscan adapters do not have the +18 volt signal to initiate a flash. Even IDS clones dont.

All you can do is hook up Forscan and see if the option is available. It would be in VID block programming.
